Prof. Bohne
Acknowledged as
Doctoral Candidate
With the successful passing of
his oral preliminary examination
on Thursday, February 18, Prof.
Quentin Bohne has officially been
acknowledged by the University
of Minnesota as a doctoral candid-ate.
This oral examination marks
the last of a long series of steps
toward his Ph. D. with the excep-tion
of the thesis itself. Prof.
Bohne's major field is Civil En-gineering
with emphasis on struc-tures
and stresses, and his minor
is mathematics. His thesis, which
he has begun work on, deals with
the design of a cylindrical struc-ture
of a type to resist the severe
shock waves of a direct atomic
blast.
`Painter's Point of View'
Theme for Tonight's Lecture
44 .2041-plait 9# Stideod .Eaktitrye
This evening at eight o'clock in the student lounge Cameron Booth
will lecture on "A Painter's Point of View." A display of his paintings
is on exhibit in the student lounge.
Mr. Booth, the son of a Presbyterian clergyman, studied at the
Chicago Art Institute for five years. After graduation he was awarded
a fellowship to study in Europe, but served in the army for two years
during World War I before taking study in Paris. In 1921 Booth ac-cepted
a teaching position at the Minneapolis School of Art. He again
studied in Europe in 1927 and in 1928. The time between 1940-48 was
spent in New York studying and teaching. At the present time Mr.
Booth is a professor at the University of Minnesota. In 1948 Mr. Booth
was honored by Hamline University when they conferred upon him the
honorary degree of Doctor of Humanities in recognition of his con-tribution
to art in the mid-west.
Tonight in his lecture Mr. Booth will show examples of his early
and later paintings and will tell of his artistic growth into the abstract
expressionist that he is today. Included in this will be an interpretation
of his art.
Mr. Cameron Booth
Music Faculty Previews
Symphonies for Broadcasts
The music department of Bethel college has recently been respon-sible
for two symphony previews under the sponsorship of the Women's
Federation of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra.
The next symphony, Friday March 5, which will feature Myra Hess,
pianist, is the one for which Miss Mildred Bisgrove and Mr. C. Howard
Smith, instructors in music, have recorded previews. The first preview
was heard last Sunday morning, 9:45 a.m. over radio station WMIN and
the next one will be heard Sunday morning, February 28.
With Dr. Paul Grabill as speak-er
on these previews, the first one
featured the overture to Medels-sohn's
"Midsummer Night's
Dream," and Brahms, Symphony
no.. 2. Next Sunday's broadcast
will be a review of the life of My-ra
Hess as well as the part which
she- will have with the symphony,
playing Beethoven's Concerto no.
4 in G Major. On these broadcasts,
excerpts from the symphonies and
concertos are also played.
The Women's Federation which
sponsors these broadcasts has all
the colleges in the Twin Cities re-sponsible
for previews for the var-ious
symphonies.
Debaters Win
4 Out of 5
Bob Hilton and Don Richardson
led the Bethel debaters by winning
4 out of 5 rounds at Eau Claire
State Teacher's College last week-end.
At the tournament, in which
over twenty colleges and universi-ties
participated, Hilton also made
the finals in two events, oratory
and extempore speaking.
Besides Hilton and Richardson,
registered for first division debate
were Barbara. Olander and Ronald
Palosaari. Bethelites in the other
section o f debate were: Adella
Bennett, Wally Anderson, Sylvia
Elthon, and Kay Hanson. The de-baters
also took part in folk tale,
discussion, and after dinner speak-ing.

Curriculum Plus
by Don - Richardson
If college is merely a place a person has
been sent by his parents to receive a
"Christian education" then it is very possi-ble
that any extra curricular activities are
unnecessary. If college is merely a place a
person goes to get a four year vacation, a
slip of paper, and a better paying job, then
there may be little need fo4 extra-curric-ulars.
If college means no more than a
cheap boarding place while working to
keep a car running then again extra- cur-ricular
activities are quite useless. How-ever,
if a person comes to Bethel with the
real intention of getting a liberal education
designed to improve his power and methods
of thinking, to learn to use his talents a
little more effectively and in all seriousness
to come out better equiped to benefit his
fellows, it would seem then that extra-curricular
activities would be desirable and
almost necessary.
The added incentive that any Christian
ought to have above and beyond that of
the average non-Christian is double reason
why the matter of extracurriculars is one
of urgent consideration. The opportunities
provided in this single area will tend to sup-plement
the efficiency of classroom courses
and also supply certain advantages that the
average courses could never do.
No doubt future teachers and preachers
have successfully absorbed great quantities
of history, literature, sociology, psychology,
philosophy, a n d the sciences. However,
these prospective servants of God and man
will probably f i n d themselves gainfully
serving only in proportion to the degree in
which they can express themselves and
their knowledge effectively. It is well that
our curriculum affords several opportunities
wherein a student can gain the skills of
expression. Nevertheless, the•practicle ben-expression.
Nevertheless, the practical ben
efits of opportunities beyond the curricu-lum
cannot be adequately duplicated.
Probably no other extra-curricular activ-ity
so lends itself to producing this skill
of meaningful expression as does intercol-legiate
debate. The debater quickly real-izes
the foolishness of spouting forth unsup-ported
generalities. He is trained to make
it a habit (not stopping with debate) to
avoid saying anything of importance that
cannot be confirmed by evidence. He learns
how to organize a series of ideas; he picks
up some sound practical speech techniques;
he soon discards a vocabulary of meaning-less
words; he drops awkward speech hab-its;
he is careful what he says. Bethel de-baters
are given opportunity to face some
of the best college debaters in the nation.
They have to be sharp.
Other outlets of meaningful expression
are afforded by the publications. Here es-pecially
by trial and error, by a gradual
recognition of writing methods, by a sense
of responsibility to get across a certain
point to a certain group — by such methods
an individual can amass a wealth of lasting
experience in the art of expressing.
Though these conclusions may evoke the
hearty "Amens" from all sides, the pity of
it all is that so comparatively few future
preachers and teachers are active in these
extra-curriculars. Somehow, to a thinking
person, this ought not be. Perhaps it will
not continue to be as newer students en-vision
the increasing demands in their fields
for leaders who can express themselves.
Belated New's
In 1933, Dr. Pearson was managing editor
of the CLARION.
Dr. Carl Lundquist and his partner, Eddie
Nelson, in 1936 won high honors for Bethel
Junior College in debate.
In 1939 Professor Swan Engwall was the
main speaker for homecoming.
In 1948, Mr. Roy Dalton was typist for
the CLARION.
Dean Edwin Omark once sang in a Bethel
male quartet.
In 1944 Walfred Peterson was feature ed-itor
of the CLARION.
Eugene Johnson left school at the end of
the winter quarter in 1948 to help drive a
Conference truck to Alaska.
(Editor's note: These bits of archaic news
were gleaned from old issues of the CLAR-ION
to bring the newer students up to date.)
On the Limb
With Axel
by Stretch and Ronnie
My hopes for Axel, my pet chimpanzee,
have really paid out. He seems to be
taking the stuff seriously — in fact, too
seriously. The other day he studied his
lawn mower sharpening in the heating
plant during chapel. He tried the dorm
first, but it was too noisy.
He unfortunately missed out on the
most of the Founder's Week meetings. It
wasn't until Thursday afternoon that he
realized the sessions weren't being held
in the coffee shop. He did enjoy the foun-der's
week menu at the dining hall and is
anxiously looking forward to prospective
student's days.
Axel has added one more practical course
to his curriculum and extra-curriculum.
When he found out that he could make
B's in most of his courses without both-ering
to study, Axel decided to
take intercollegiate debate. He did-n't
really want to, but he wanted a
good mark in English communications. Ax-el
is now Bethel's only debater regionally
acknowledged for his foot gestures.
Axel's staying on with debate was mom-entarily
questioned when he was disqual-ified
in after dinner speaking at the Eau
Claire tournament for his bad taste and
also for spitting cherry seeds at the judge.
Axel then rationalized (something new he
learned to psychology). He blamed the bad
taste on the coach and his ill manners on
the places he ate at on debate trips. How-ever,
Axel is not without honors. Bradley
University heard that he was in debate
and immediately sent him certificates for
.oratory, discussion, folk lore, and minor
sixteenth century play-acting.
I am very much afraid that Axel has
not yet learned the value of the African
gold nugget (called thredts in South Ub-angi,
Africa). He put one in the missionary
offering the other day, but he recovered
it in time when he saw only silver thredts
among his gold. He chased the usher clear
into the hall, downstairs into the coffee
shop, and interrupted a seminar on exis-tential
ethics before he finally regained
his thredt. His other monetary moves were
more disasterous. Before I could warn him
he had bought a set of Cutco, Kitchen
Craft, a vacuum sweeper that can run on
a dry cell, and a litter of pigs. Last week
a fellow on second floor in the dorm stuck
him for eight pair of used socks, a couple
eighty-seven cent ties, and a can of readi-whip
shaving cream. He didn't know that
chimpanzees don't shave. When I got home
from church Sunday he was in the wash-room
smattered from the waist up with
foam lather trying to shave with the rest
of the fellows.
Methy's Menu
by Stretch
While inadvertantly rumaging through an
old filing cabinet for research material, I
ran across this bit of poetic verse (or
versified poetry or whatever you want to
call it) that I'd like to pass on to those
students who miss breakfast like I usually
do.
Methuselah ate what he found on his plate,
And never, as people do now,
Did he note the amount of the calory count;
He ate it because it was chow.
He wasn't disturbed as at dinner he sat,
Devouring a roast or a pie,
To think it was lacking in granular fat,
Or a couple of vitamins shy.
He cheerfully chewed each species of food,
Unmindful of troubles or fears
Lest his health might be hurt by some
fancy dessert —
And he lived over nine hundred years.
Everybody Smile
by Rip Moore
This is the time of the year when Spire
pictures are taken. Many people have nev-er
taken these important pictures. This ap-plies
both to the photographer and to the
photographed. -
The first thing to pay attention to is the
little note in the P.O. box. These are in
back of the old letters your box partner
never takes. This note mentions there will
be a Spire picture taken of you yesterday.
This causes sadness of heart because you
want your picture taken. You know you
have to take off half the morning to find
out what you should do. It is always the
same. The picture has been postponed to
next week. This is very nice as you missed
a surprise quiz in the class you cut.
Pictures are always postponed till test
days. They are taken the hour before the
test. This is very good for it gives you a
chance to relax. It takes away the tempta-tion
to cram. Some students complain about
this. This is unfair. They would h a v e
flunked the test anyway.
To take the picture you put on a suit.
This makes your friends happy. It gives
them a chance to laugh at you. It also
teaches virtue. You learn not to get angry
when the mud is splashed. You should
wear your good brown suit. It look gooc.
and the mud shows less.
Photographers are always on time to take
pictures. It is too bad they forget the film.
It only takes a few minutes to get the film.
In that time you can look at the rest of the
group. They look as bad as you do.
There is someone with the photographer.
He holds the little outfit with a bulb in it.
This is very hard to figure out. When the
photographer's bulb goes off his never does.
They then talk excitedly a minute. After
that the photographer gives all a fishy
smile. You then rush to your test, and an-other
picture has probably been taken.
Teach Us
To Pray
by Ronald Palosaari
Many have heard the word "prayer" so
much that it has become as exciting as an
eight o'clock class. Yet doesn't it seem that
prayer should be as satisfying as Sunday
dinners if the Bible speaks with any truth
upon it. For the Bible doesn't carry the
idea of praying in public only when trapped
into it and then making a strong effort to
say phrases in such a way as to please any-one
who might be listening. Neither does
the Bible carry the idea praying so that
someone (possibly a roommate) might see
and appreciate the fervor of one's spiritual
labors; nor does the Bible carry the idea
of quickly running over a few set phrases
at night or in the morning because of habit
The Bible does seem to carry the idea of
a human being in actual conversation and
communion with his God. It carries the idea
of humans sometimes pleading, sometimes
asking, sometimes repenting, sometimes
thanking, and many, many times receiving.
Are all the apparent prayers in the din-ing
hall really prayers of thankfulness? Are
the bowed heads for effect? Ought we not
from time to time carefully examine the in-tensity,
direction, and sincerety of our own
praying especially when so praying in view
others?
Washington Irving says somewhere that
when we see one with whom we have
quarrelled lie cold in death, we, feel sad and
ashamed to think that we have been angry
with one that after all was so weak.
Longfellow says somewhere that if we
could know the sorrows, the burdens, and
the cares of our worst enemy, our hatred
would change into pity and even into love.
For — it is Victor Hugo who warns that
pity and love are so closely related that
if we are to keep at all costs from loving
a person then we should watch against any
tendency to pity him.
But it is recognized that one of the out-standing
characteristics of true greatness
is sympathy. We find it in the great poet,
the great artist, the great musician. We
find it infinitely in the Christ — who saw
the multitude as sheep without a Shepherd
and "had compassion on them."
The name of the agency which has been
used to bring relief to warstricken Europe
has been rightly named "Care." It is easy
to let the words slip off the tongue, "I
don't care." But the crying needs of th∎
world are calling poignantly for people who
"care."
The high expression of personality is
sympathy. It will show in the light of the
eye, in the tone of the voice, in the radi-ance
of a smile. It will lighten the load of
the pilgrim and ease the pressure on the
heart of the sorrowing, and it will make
the lonely one no longer lonely.
It was said of "Evangeline" that "when
she had passed it seemed like the ceasing
of exquisite music."
raper
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world speaks of. Where-fore
let thy voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and
day.
For what are men better than ,sheep
or goats
That nourish a blind life within the
brain,
If, Knowing God, they lift not hands
of prayer
Both for themselves and those who call
them friends?
Tennyson
How anxious do we find ourselves to
pray? Haw deep is our interest in prayer
meetings? One student just recently told
how troubled he was over the decline in
prayer meetings. He did not even realize
that a prayer meeting took place twice a
week across the hall from him. There are
no recorded deaths from surprise at seeing
a new face in a dorm or noon prayer meet-ing,
s but there could be ample testimony of
people who have really been made happy
because one new face showed up at a prayer
meeting.
If you at all believe, it would be fitting
to do it.

Twin City Writers' Club
Recently Organized
To anyone who has ever had the inspiration or inclination to write
for Christian publications, the newly organized Writers' Club of the
Twin City area will be of special interest . .. and profit.
Organized for the purpose of fellowship, encouragement, criticism
of manuscripts, and perhaps most important of all, becoming better
acquainted with existing markets, the first meeting was held Monday,
Feb. 22 at the University YMCA, Minneapolis. The next meeting will
be March 22 at the Downtown YMCA, Minneapolis, at 6:00 p.m., where
the group will eat together at the cafeteria, and from 6:30 to 8:00 will
discuss what various members have published and are currently work-ing
on or interested in.
Fellowship is to be on three
levels: for the aspiring beginner;
for the active writer who has sold
five or more pieces divided among
at least three publications; for the
regular writer who has made a
book sale or sold 25 manuscripts.
Any Christian writer or would-be
writer will be welcome and will
find kindred spirits in the fiction
field, in the writing of personality
sketches, devotionals, feature ar-ticles
and full-length books. It has
been suggested that pastors who
will be writing for their Confer-ence
papers, misionaries who will
send home missionary letters, and
pastors' wives who will be called
upon for devotional writings, may
also find this club of great value
and inspiration.

Bethel Takes Founder's Classic
Coach Encourages Workouts
Hey! It's time to be working out for those spring sports! Athletic
Director, Del Ray Peterson, says that the way is all clear for a top-notch
season in baseball, track, tennis, and golf. The Royals will ten-tatively
be competing with Augsburg, Hamline, Macalester, St. Thomas,
Concordia, and Northwestern Schools. Anyone interested in any of
these sports can sign up for them on the sheet which is posted in the
locker room of the fieldhouse.
Coach Peterson
_ - -
but determine the final standing,
intramural interest is running
high.
Royals Stomped
The Royals suffered their worst
defeat of the season Monday night
at River Falls, 100-58. It was a case
ofo-"more of the same" as height
again shattered Bethel's chances
as it did in the first meeting of the
teams which ended 83-66 for River
Falls.
Erickson was the only one who
seemed able to find the hoop. He
dunked 15, with Messenger getting
10, and Sandburg 8. Although Riv-er
Falls was definitely a smoother
outfit, the Royals helped them by
having their worst night of the
current season.
There will be a meeting on Wed-nesday,
March 3, in the field-house,
at 12:45 for all those inter-ested.
At this time plans will be
discussed and further information
will be passed out. If there, are
conflictions with the designated
time information may be obtained
from Del Ray Peterson.
Coach Peterson also added that
the time is coming nearer for the
athletic chapel program, during
which the athletic awards of the
year will be made, and the annual
sports' banquet. The "B" Club will
announce more of these plans in
the immediate future. Watch the
CLARION for future reports!
Royalettes B ake
With Mary Nicol rattling t h e
boards for 15 points, the girls bas-ketball
team defeated a scrappy
Northwestern team 27-20 on Tues-day
night in the fieldhouse. It was
a hard fought affair throughout
with the score at halftime 11-7 for
Bethel.
To the average male observer it
looked nothing short of downright
rough. However,. the gi r 1 s ex-plained
that this is the way the
game is played.
Although the season is almost
over for the guys, the girls still
have a number of games sched-uled.
The girls also rallied from a 17-
1 1 halftime deficit Wednesday
night to defeat Elim Baptist by a
score of 38-30. Mary Nicol again
led the way in scoring with a neat
21 points, while Jan Mc Kinney
dumped in 14.
Winona Outlasts Royals
A behind-all - the - way Bethel
closed its 1953-54 home season
with a brilliant last-minute rally
that fell three points short.
Winona, the best team to grace
the Royal's floor this season, was
all shine with its sharp ball-hand-ling
and accurate shooting. Still
Bethel, with dogged persistance,
fought back in a manner that
could bring nothing but admira-tion
from the crowd.
Winona showed great poise in
using the same type of offense
that Bethel has been developing all
year. Although the Winona players
had height, the main factor for
the Winona win was the very high
average of shots made. Through
much of the game, the Winona
team held a lead of 17 points.
Bethel was the better at the end.
At the start of the fourth quartet
Bethel cut Winona's 17 point lead
to 10 points. Then Winona tried
a stall. The stall almost won the
game for Bethel as it continued to
cut the lead to the final score of
82-79 in favor of Winona.
Paul Redin was high scorer with
31 points, the highest total for any
Bethel player in one game this
year. Erickson a n d Steinhaus
played all-out as usual and Howard
Johnson gave his best performance
of the year.
SeminaryUndefeated
Led by standouts Don Laing,
Cliff D. Anderson and Clarence
Wood, the seminary basketball
team stands undefeated in the
current season.
Averaging nearly 70 points per
game to the opponents 50, they
boast a strong, well balanced club
which has knocked off such teams
as Luther Seminary, Northwestern
"B" squad and our own "B" squad.
Don Laing is individual high
scorer with an effort of 26 points
against Luther Seminary.
Others on the team are Ronnie
Skoog, Paul Thompson, Bud
Pierce, Bod Sandin, Dean Olson,
Marvin Sandburg, Don Sheldon,
and Roy Nelson. Coach for the
team is Everet Johnson.
Naturally the Royals started slow
and were behind as much as eight
points at times in the first quarter.
Then the rally began, accompanied
b y vigorous cheering f r o m the
Bethel spectators. The game was
never put "on ice" as the Eagles
continued fighting, even in the
waning seconds.
Howard Johnson, getting his first
starting nod of the season from
coach Del Ray Peterson, earned
his was with good shooting, smooth
ball handling, and real fighting un-der
the boards.

West Team to Beat
"Beat West" is the cry of the
Saturday morning intramural boys.
West, the only undefeated power,
is looking for its intramural clinch-ing
victory when it plays Michigan-
Wisconsin, Saturday.
Michigan - Wisconsin may have
different ideas, however, as a win
would move them into a tie for
first place. Minnesota is holding on
to third place with a five-win,
three-loss record. Iowa and East
follow with weak Illinois bringing
up the rear.
With Saturday's clashes to all.
The Royals waxed hot to the glee of a fine Founders Week crowd
as they trounced their traditional cross-town rivals Northwestern
Schools for the second time in as many contests to the tune of 55-50.
As usual room mates Hal Erickson and Bruce Steinhaus provided
plenty of scrap for the Bethel squad, and all of the Northwestern boys
seemed to be overloaded with this questionable trait.
According to spectatOrs from both schools; the refereeing wasn't
the best. The game was characterized by foul-shots—some earned and
some not.
As was the case in the first con-test,
two Eagles found their way to
the bench via the foul-out route
and most of the players from both
teams were not far from it when
the final buzzer blew.

Prof. Bohne
Acknowledged as
Doctoral Candidate
With the successful passing of
his oral preliminary examination
on Thursday, February 18, Prof.
Quentin Bohne has officially been
acknowledged by the University
of Minnesota as a doctoral candid-ate.
This oral examination marks
the last of a long series of steps
toward his Ph. D. with the excep-tion
of the thesis itself. Prof.
Bohne's major field is Civil En-gineering
with emphasis on struc-tures
and stresses, and his minor
is mathematics. His thesis, which
he has begun work on, deals with
the design of a cylindrical struc-ture
of a type to resist the severe
shock waves of a direct atomic
blast.
`Painter's Point of View'
Theme for Tonight's Lecture
44 .2041-plait 9# Stideod .Eaktitrye
This evening at eight o'clock in the student lounge Cameron Booth
will lecture on "A Painter's Point of View." A display of his paintings
is on exhibit in the student lounge.
Mr. Booth, the son of a Presbyterian clergyman, studied at the
Chicago Art Institute for five years. After graduation he was awarded
a fellowship to study in Europe, but served in the army for two years
during World War I before taking study in Paris. In 1921 Booth ac-cepted
a teaching position at the Minneapolis School of Art. He again
studied in Europe in 1927 and in 1928. The time between 1940-48 was
spent in New York studying and teaching. At the present time Mr.
Booth is a professor at the University of Minnesota. In 1948 Mr. Booth
was honored by Hamline University when they conferred upon him the
honorary degree of Doctor of Humanities in recognition of his con-tribution
to art in the mid-west.
Tonight in his lecture Mr. Booth will show examples of his early
and later paintings and will tell of his artistic growth into the abstract
expressionist that he is today. Included in this will be an interpretation
of his art.

Music Faculty Previews
Symphonies for Broadcasts
The music department of Bethel college has recently been respon-sible
for two symphony previews under the sponsorship of the Women's
Federation of the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra.
The next symphony, Friday March 5, which will feature Myra Hess,
pianist, is the one for which Miss Mildred Bisgrove and Mr. C. Howard
Smith, instructors in music, have recorded previews. The first preview
was heard last Sunday morning, 9:45 a.m. over radio station WMIN and
the next one will be heard Sunday morning, February 28.
With Dr. Paul Grabill as speak-er
on these previews, the first one
featured the overture to Medels-sohn's
"Midsummer Night's
Dream," and Brahms, Symphony
no.. 2. Next Sunday's broadcast
will be a review of the life of My-ra
Hess as well as the part which
she- will have with the symphony,
playing Beethoven's Concerto no.
4 in G Major. On these broadcasts,
excerpts from the symphonies and
concertos are also played.
The Women's Federation which
sponsors these broadcasts has all
the colleges in the Twin Cities re-sponsible
for previews for the var-ious
symphonies.

Curriculum Plus
by Don - Richardson
If college is merely a place a person has
been sent by his parents to receive a
"Christian education" then it is very possi-ble
that any extra curricular activities are
unnecessary. If college is merely a place a
person goes to get a four year vacation, a
slip of paper, and a better paying job, then
there may be little need fo4 extra-curric-ulars.
If college means no more than a
cheap boarding place while working to
keep a car running then again extra- cur-ricular
activities are quite useless. How-ever,
if a person comes to Bethel with the
real intention of getting a liberal education
designed to improve his power and methods
of thinking, to learn to use his talents a
little more effectively and in all seriousness
to come out better equiped to benefit his
fellows, it would seem then that extra-curricular
activities would be desirable and
almost necessary.
The added incentive that any Christian
ought to have above and beyond that of
the average non-Christian is double reason
why the matter of extracurriculars is one
of urgent consideration. The opportunities
provided in this single area will tend to sup-plement
the efficiency of classroom courses
and also supply certain advantages that the
average courses could never do.
No doubt future teachers and preachers
have successfully absorbed great quantities
of history, literature, sociology, psychology,
philosophy, a n d the sciences. However,
these prospective servants of God and man
will probably f i n d themselves gainfully
serving only in proportion to the degree in
which they can express themselves and
their knowledge effectively. It is well that
our curriculum affords several opportunities
wherein a student can gain the skills of
expression. Nevertheless, the•practicle ben-expression.
Nevertheless, the practical ben
efits of opportunities beyond the curricu-lum
cannot be adequately duplicated.
Probably no other extra-curricular activ-ity
so lends itself to producing this skill
of meaningful expression as does intercol-legiate
debate. The debater quickly real-izes
the foolishness of spouting forth unsup-ported
generalities. He is trained to make
it a habit (not stopping with debate) to
avoid saying anything of importance that
cannot be confirmed by evidence. He learns
how to organize a series of ideas; he picks
up some sound practical speech techniques;
he soon discards a vocabulary of meaning-less
words; he drops awkward speech hab-its;
he is careful what he says. Bethel de-baters
are given opportunity to face some
of the best college debaters in the nation.
They have to be sharp.
Other outlets of meaningful expression
are afforded by the publications. Here es-pecially
by trial and error, by a gradual
recognition of writing methods, by a sense
of responsibility to get across a certain
point to a certain group — by such methods
an individual can amass a wealth of lasting
experience in the art of expressing.
Though these conclusions may evoke the
hearty "Amens" from all sides, the pity of
it all is that so comparatively few future
preachers and teachers are active in these
extra-curriculars. Somehow, to a thinking
person, this ought not be. Perhaps it will
not continue to be as newer students en-vision
the increasing demands in their fields
for leaders who can express themselves.
Belated New's
In 1933, Dr. Pearson was managing editor
of the CLARION.
Dr. Carl Lundquist and his partner, Eddie
Nelson, in 1936 won high honors for Bethel
Junior College in debate.
In 1939 Professor Swan Engwall was the
main speaker for homecoming.
In 1948, Mr. Roy Dalton was typist for
the CLARION.
Dean Edwin Omark once sang in a Bethel
male quartet.
In 1944 Walfred Peterson was feature ed-itor
of the CLARION.
Eugene Johnson left school at the end of
the winter quarter in 1948 to help drive a

On the Limb
With Axel
by Stretch and Ronnie
My hopes for Axel, my pet chimpanzee,
have really paid out. He seems to be
taking the stuff seriously — in fact, too
seriously. The other day he studied his
lawn mower sharpening in the heating
plant during chapel. He tried the dorm
first, but it was too noisy.
He unfortunately missed out on the
most of the Founder's Week meetings. It
wasn't until Thursday afternoon that he
realized the sessions weren't being held
in the coffee shop. He did enjoy the foun-der's
week menu at the dining hall and is
anxiously looking forward to prospective
student's days.
Axel has added one more practical course
to his curriculum and extra-curriculum.
When he found out that he could make
B's in most of his courses without both-ering
to study, Axel decided to
take intercollegiate debate. He did-n't
really want to, but he wanted a
good mark in English communications. Ax-el
is now Bethel's only debater regionally
acknowledged for his foot gestures.
Axel's staying on with debate was mom-entarily
questioned when he was disqual-ified
in after dinner speaking at the Eau
Claire tournament for his bad taste and
also for spitting cherry seeds at the judge.
Axel then rationalized (something new he
learned to psychology). He blamed the bad
taste on the coach and his ill manners on
the places he ate at on debate trips. How-ever,
Axel is not without honors. Bradley
University heard that he was in debate
and immediately sent him certificates for
.oratory, discussion, folk lore, and minor
sixteenth century play-acting.
I am very much afraid that Axel has
not yet learned the value of the African
gold nugget (called thredts in South Ub-angi,
Africa). He put one in the missionary
offering the other day, but he recovered
it in time when he saw only silver thredts
among his gold. He chased the usher clear
into the hall, downstairs into the coffee
shop, and interrupted a seminar on exis-tential
ethics before he finally regained
his thredt. His other monetary moves were
more disasterous. Before I could warn him
he had bought a set of Cutco, Kitchen
Craft, a vacuum sweeper that can run on
a dry cell, and a litter of pigs. Last week
a fellow on second floor in the dorm stuck
him for eight pair of used socks, a couple
eighty-seven cent ties, and a can of readi-whip
shaving cream. He didn't know that
chimpanzees don't shave. When I got home
from church Sunday he was in the wash-room
smattered from the waist up with
foam lather trying to shave with the rest
of the fellows.
Methy's Menu
by Stretch
While inadvertantly rumaging through an
old filing cabinet for research material, I
ran across this bit of poetic verse (or
versified poetry or whatever you want to
call it) that I'd like to pass on to those
students who miss breakfast like I usually
do.
Methuselah ate what he found on his plate,
And never, as people do now,
Did he note the amount of the calory count;
He ate it because it was chow.
He wasn't disturbed as at dinner he sat,
Devouring a roast or a pie,
To think it was lacking in granular fat,
Or a couple of vitamins shy.
He cheerfully chewed each species of food,
Unmindful of troubles or fears
Lest his health might be hurt by some
fancy dessert —
And he lived over nine hundred years.
Everybody Smile
by Rip Moore
This is the time of the year when Spire
pictures are taken. Many people have nev-er
taken these important pictures. This ap-plies
both to the photographer and to the
photographed. -
The first thing to pay attention to is the
little note in the P.O. box. These are in
back of the old letters your box partner
never takes. This note mentions there will
be a Spire picture taken of you yesterday.
This causes sadness of heart because you
want your picture taken. You know you
have to take off half the morning to find
out what you should do. It is always the
same. The picture has been postponed to
next week. This is very nice as you missed
a surprise quiz in the class you cut.
Pictures are always postponed till test
days. They are taken the hour before the
test. This is very good for it gives you a
chance to relax. It takes away the tempta-tion
to cram. Some students complain about
this. This is unfair. They would h a v e
flunked the test anyway.
To take the picture you put on a suit.
This makes your friends happy. It gives
them a chance to laugh at you. It also
teaches virtue. You learn not to get angry
when the mud is splashed. You should
wear your good brown suit. It look gooc.
and the mud shows less.
Photographers are always on time to take
pictures. It is too bad they forget the film.
It only takes a few minutes to get the film.
In that time you can look at the rest of the
group. They look as bad as you do.
There is someone with the photographer.
He holds the little outfit with a bulb in it.
This is very hard to figure out. When the
photographer's bulb goes off his never does.
They then talk excitedly a minute. After
that the photographer gives all a fishy
smile. You then rush to your test, and an-other
picture has probably been taken.
Teach Us
To Pray
by Ronald Palosaari
Many have heard the word "prayer" so
much that it has become as exciting as an
eight o'clock class. Yet doesn't it seem that
prayer should be as satisfying as Sunday
dinners if the Bible speaks with any truth
upon it. For the Bible doesn't carry the
idea of praying in public only when trapped
into it and then making a strong effort to
say phrases in such a way as to please any-one
who might be listening. Neither does
the Bible carry the idea praying so that
someone (possibly a roommate) might see
and appreciate the fervor of one's spiritual
labors; nor does the Bible carry the idea
of quickly running over a few set phrases
at night or in the morning because of habit
The Bible does seem to carry the idea of
a human being in actual conversation and
communion with his God. It carries the idea
of humans sometimes pleading, sometimes
asking, sometimes repenting, sometimes
thanking, and many, many times receiving.
Are all the apparent prayers in the din-ing
hall really prayers of thankfulness? Are
the bowed heads for effect? Ought we not
from time to time carefully examine the in-tensity,
direction, and sincerety of our own
praying especially when so praying in view
others?
Washington Irving says somewhere that
when we see one with whom we have
quarrelled lie cold in death, we, feel sad and
ashamed to think that we have been angry
with one that after all was so weak.
Longfellow says somewhere that if we
could know the sorrows, the burdens, and
the cares of our worst enemy, our hatred
would change into pity and even into love.
For — it is Victor Hugo who warns that
pity and love are so closely related that
if we are to keep at all costs from loving
a person then we should watch against any
tendency to pity him.
But it is recognized that one of the out-standing
characteristics of true greatness
is sympathy. We find it in the great poet,
the great artist, the great musician. We
find it infinitely in the Christ — who saw
the multitude as sheep without a Shepherd
and "had compassion on them."
The name of the agency which has been
used to bring relief to warstricken Europe
has been rightly named "Care." It is easy
to let the words slip off the tongue, "I
don't care." But the crying needs of th∎
world are calling poignantly for people who
"care."
The high expression of personality is
sympathy. It will show in the light of the
eye, in the tone of the voice, in the radi-ance
of a smile. It will lighten the load of
the pilgrim and ease the pressure on the
heart of the sorrowing, and it will make
the lonely one no longer lonely.
It was said of "Evangeline" that "when
she had passed it seemed like the ceasing
of exquisite music."
raper
More things are wrought by prayer
Than this world speaks of. Where-fore
let thy voice
Rise like a fountain for me night and
day.
For what are men better than ,sheep
or goats
That nourish a blind life within the
brain,
If, Knowing God, they lift not hands
of prayer
Both for themselves and those who call
them friends?
Tennyson
How anxious do we find ourselves to
pray? Haw deep is our interest in prayer
meetings? One student just recently told
how troubled he was over the decline in
prayer meetings. He did not even realize
that a prayer meeting took place twice a
week across the hall from him. There are
no recorded deaths from surprise at seeing
a new face in a dorm or noon prayer meet-ing,
s but there could be ample testimony of
people who have really been made happy
because one new face showed up at a prayer
meeting.
If you at all believe, it would be fitting
to do it.

Twin City Writers' Club
Recently Organized
To anyone who has ever had the inspiration or inclination to write
for Christian publications, the newly organized Writers' Club of the
Twin City area will be of special interest . .. and profit.
Organized for the purpose of fellowship, encouragement, criticism
of manuscripts, and perhaps most important of all, becoming better
acquainted with existing markets, the first meeting was held Monday,
Feb. 22 at the University YMCA, Minneapolis. The next meeting will
be March 22 at the Downtown YMCA, Minneapolis, at 6:00 p.m., where
the group will eat together at the cafeteria, and from 6:30 to 8:00 will
discuss what various members have published and are currently work-ing
on or interested in.
Fellowship is to be on three
levels: for the aspiring beginner;
for the active writer who has sold
five or more pieces divided among
at least three publications; for the
regular writer who has made a
book sale or sold 25 manuscripts.
Any Christian writer or would-be
writer will be welcome and will
find kindred spirits in the fiction
field, in the writing of personality
sketches, devotionals, feature ar-ticles
and full-length books. It has
been suggested that pastors who
will be writing for their Confer-ence
papers, misionaries who will
send home missionary letters, and
pastors' wives who will be called
upon for devotional writings, may
also find this club of great value
and inspiration.

Bethel Takes Founder's Classic
Coach Encourages Workouts
Hey! It's time to be working out for those spring sports! Athletic
Director, Del Ray Peterson, says that the way is all clear for a top-notch
season in baseball, track, tennis, and golf. The Royals will ten-tatively
be competing with Augsburg, Hamline, Macalester, St. Thomas,
Concordia, and Northwestern Schools. Anyone interested in any of
these sports can sign up for them on the sheet which is posted in the
locker room of the fieldhouse.
Coach Peterson
_ - -
but determine the final standing,
intramural interest is running
high.
Royals Stomped
The Royals suffered their worst
defeat of the season Monday night
at River Falls, 100-58. It was a case
ofo-"more of the same" as height
again shattered Bethel's chances
as it did in the first meeting of the
teams which ended 83-66 for River
Falls.
Erickson was the only one who
seemed able to find the hoop. He
dunked 15, with Messenger getting
10, and Sandburg 8. Although Riv-er
Falls was definitely a smoother
outfit, the Royals helped them by
having their worst night of the
current season.
There will be a meeting on Wed-nesday,
March 3, in the field-house,
at 12:45 for all those inter-ested.
At this time plans will be
discussed and further information
will be passed out. If there, are
conflictions with the designated
time information may be obtained
from Del Ray Peterson.
Coach Peterson also added that
the time is coming nearer for the
athletic chapel program, during
which the athletic awards of the
year will be made, and the annual
sports' banquet. The "B" Club will
announce more of these plans in
the immediate future. Watch the
CLARION for future reports!
Royalettes B ake
With Mary Nicol rattling t h e
boards for 15 points, the girls bas-ketball
team defeated a scrappy
Northwestern team 27-20 on Tues-day
night in the fieldhouse. It was
a hard fought affair throughout
with the score at halftime 11-7 for
Bethel.
To the average male observer it
looked nothing short of downright
rough. However,. the gi r 1 s ex-plained
that this is the way the
game is played.
Although the season is almost
over for the guys, the girls still
have a number of games sched-uled.
The girls also rallied from a 17-
1 1 halftime deficit Wednesday
night to defeat Elim Baptist by a
score of 38-30. Mary Nicol again
led the way in scoring with a neat
21 points, while Jan Mc Kinney
dumped in 14.
Winona Outlasts Royals
A behind-all - the - way Bethel
closed its 1953-54 home season
with a brilliant last-minute rally
that fell three points short.
Winona, the best team to grace
the Royal's floor this season, was
all shine with its sharp ball-hand-ling
and accurate shooting. Still
Bethel, with dogged persistance,
fought back in a manner that
could bring nothing but admira-tion
from the crowd.
Winona showed great poise in
using the same type of offense
that Bethel has been developing all
year. Although the Winona players
had height, the main factor for
the Winona win was the very high
average of shots made. Through
much of the game, the Winona
team held a lead of 17 points.
Bethel was the better at the end.
At the start of the fourth quartet
Bethel cut Winona's 17 point lead
to 10 points. Then Winona tried
a stall. The stall almost won the
game for Bethel as it continued to
cut the lead to the final score of
82-79 in favor of Winona.
Paul Redin was high scorer with
31 points, the highest total for any
Bethel player in one game this
year. Erickson a n d Steinhaus
played all-out as usual and Howard
Johnson gave his best performance
of the year.
SeminaryUndefeated
Led by standouts Don Laing,
Cliff D. Anderson and Clarence
Wood, the seminary basketball
team stands undefeated in the
current season.
Averaging nearly 70 points per
game to the opponents 50, they
boast a strong, well balanced club
which has knocked off such teams
as Luther Seminary, Northwestern
"B" squad and our own "B" squad.
Don Laing is individual high
scorer with an effort of 26 points
against Luther Seminary.
Others on the team are Ronnie
Skoog, Paul Thompson, Bud
Pierce, Bod Sandin, Dean Olson,
Marvin Sandburg, Don Sheldon,
and Roy Nelson. Coach for the
team is Everet Johnson.
Naturally the Royals started slow
and were behind as much as eight
points at times in the first quarter.
Then the rally began, accompanied
b y vigorous cheering f r o m the
Bethel spectators. The game was
never put "on ice" as the Eagles
continued fighting, even in the
waning seconds.
Howard Johnson, getting his first
starting nod of the season from
coach Del Ray Peterson, earned
his was with good shooting, smooth
ball handling, and real fighting un-der
the boards.

West Team to Beat
"Beat West" is the cry of the
Saturday morning intramural boys.
West, the only undefeated power,
is looking for its intramural clinch-ing
victory when it plays Michigan-
Wisconsin, Saturday.
Michigan - Wisconsin may have
different ideas, however, as a win
would move them into a tie for
first place. Minnesota is holding on
to third place with a five-win,
three-loss record. Iowa and East
follow with weak Illinois bringing
up the rear.
With Saturday's clashes to all.
The Royals waxed hot to the glee of a fine Founders Week crowd
as they trounced their traditional cross-town rivals Northwestern
Schools for the second time in as many contests to the tune of 55-50.
As usual room mates Hal Erickson and Bruce Steinhaus provided
plenty of scrap for the Bethel squad, and all of the Northwestern boys
seemed to be overloaded with this questionable trait.
According to spectatOrs from both schools; the refereeing wasn't
the best. The game was characterized by foul-shots—some earned and
some not.
As was the case in the first con-test,
two Eagles found their way to
the bench via the foul-out route
and most of the players from both
teams were not far from it when
the final buzzer blew.
